What is a Streetscape Design Plan?

A Streetscape Design Plan is a comprehensive approach to the design and layout of public roads and adjacent land uses.  These plans prioritize the interaction between the built environment and the people who use it, aiming to create functional, safe, and visually appealing spaces. With Wavefront’s expertise, we ensure that each plan addresses the unique needs of your community, promoting walkability, enhancing curb appeal, and improving overall livability.

Key Components of a Successful Streetscape Design Plan

 Accessibility and Safety
Sustainable Green Spaces 
Placemaking

At Wavefront, we understand that safety is paramount in every Streetscape Design Plan. We design pedestrian-friendly active transportation zones that encourage walking and biking while ensuring that sidewalks are safe and accessible for all users, including individuals with mobility challenges.

Greening a streetscape helps cities adapt to climate change, provides habitat for urban wildlife, and promotes a sense of connection to the natural world.  Our designs include sustainable construction details for street trees, planters, rain gardens, wildflowers and green roofs on transit shelters to create vibrant public spaces that foster community interaction. With a focus on sustainability, we incorporate environmentally friendly practices in all of our streetscape design plans and construction drawings.

Creating vibrant, inviting public spaces that reflect local culture and a strong sense of community is an underlying element in our approach to streetscape design plans.  We view streetscapes not just as corridors for movement, but as  destinations  where people will gather, socialize and keep active.
